If you are looking for sleek and modern, then the King Edward isn't for you. But it offers a good location steps from the subway system, easy walking distance to many attractions and shopping locations, and with a lovely atmosphere.

I stayed here recently while visiting some friends. The staff was very helpful, especially at the concierge desk - I hadn't been to Canada in about 20 years so wanted some recommendations. My visit happened to coincide with a major water repair, but the staff was very helpful in working around the water outages. When there was a small problem related to sediment in the pipes after the water was turned back on, they immediately sent housekeeping to take care of the issue.

Tip: if you are older or have mobility issues, I would recommend requesting a handicap accessible room. In my room and in the public restrooms the toilets were really low and I know that many of my elder relatives would have serious difficulties with this.

From service to room to food, to friendliness and helpfulness of staff, top marks. I was in the hotel for business, so I was pleased with the large work surface available in my room. At night the bed was very comfortable.

We stayed at the King Edward Hotel in Toronto during a business conference. Staff is friendly and courteous, and when asked provided hints on things to do in the city and nearby restaurants. Lobby and dining areas are clean and well maintained. Rooms are spacious, clean, comfortable and quiet. The fitness center has a wide variety of fitness machines and equipment and is clean and well maintained. The location is in the heart of downtown, close to nearby attractions and public transportation is readily available at the front door.

My husband and I purchased a Groupon deal for one night stay at the Omni King Edward for $129/night including wifi.

This hotel is very conveniently located within walking distance of The Eaton Center, St Lawrence Market and CN Tower/Rogers Center. The subway is a block away, which we took to the Rogers Center for the Jays game as it was raining.

We had the option to upgrade our room to the "new" section for $20 but opted to keep the "older" room. We were happy we did because the room was very charming. The bed was very comfy and we didn't hear any noise from King Street. We also didn't hear any noise from people walking in the hallway.

The only downfall about this hotel is that the valet parking is $45/night and no option to self park. Luckily we knew this before hand so we found our own parking about a ten minute walk away. It cost is $16, much better then what the Omni was charging.

If there was a Groupon again in the future we would definitely stay here again.

Was told when booking, about the new upgraded rooms. Checked in, and was given an older postage stamp room. Next day was re reading the reviews and discovered the rennovated rooms were on floor 6. Moved the next day with a $20.00 upgrade and what a difference!!..I think the hotel staff should tell their patrons of this option when checking in!!! All in all a good stay and would likely return. The bell staff, concierge were very helpful.

Also the wi fi in the renovated room was highly superior than the older room..Had issues in the older room with wi fi

Room Tip: Ask for rennovated room if you desire space

Hotel of great historical significance to Toronto that is returning to its former magnificence. First class service. Location in old Toronto within walking distance of St. Lawrence market added to the pleasure of the visit. Being steps to the subway,the location also opens up the city to visitors. The recent renovations to some rooms really added to the quality of the stay for us.
